I am going through the HelloWorld example tutorial and can not start Tomcat via the MyEclipse Server toolbar. I have created a web project and a sample jsp. I am able to deploy to Tomcat via myEclipse and start Tomcat from the cmdline, but can not start it from within myEclipse.

I am running:
OS X – 10.4.3
Eclipse – 3.1.1
MyEclipse – 4.0.3
Tomcat – 5.5.14

When I try and start tomcat a new file tab opens called URLClassPath.class, which says The jar file classes.jar has no source attachments. I am assuming it the problem is environmental, but am stuck for the being. Any help would be much appreciated.

Thanks,
-Al

Al,
I believe what is happening is a “ghost” breakpoint. Switch to your debug perspective, go to your breakpoints tab, right click and do a Remove All. Now try and run Tomcat, did it work? You might also note if the debugger is “Stopping” the execution.

Try and restart Myeclipse using the -clean command line argument, that can sometimes help get rid of the false break points, if not, you will need to create a new workspace and reimport your projects into it.

removing the breakpoints did it. Thanks, -Al
